After many months in the Shop we are finally ready to release the new and improved
King of the Hill OILCHANGE!

Let's go over some.. changes
  • 99% Artpassed every nook and Cranny
  • Including new, shiny Custom content from:
@FGD5
@Pinewabble
and
@Square
Just to give you a taste, FGD5 has supplied us with many Vehicles, including fully animated steering and drifting on the Two Revin Race Cars (As well as many, many other models)
Pinewabble has come in Clutch with wonderful Dust particles, tumbleweeds, and BOBBLEHEADS (and other trinkets)
Square has come in with the true blue Advertisement posters which you can find all around the race course.
  • A complete redux to the optimization, Clipping, and...
  • Fully redone 3d skybox and Displacement work!
Make sure to swing by the Museum to learn some History, or stop by the mechanics to get yourself fixed up. And last but not least... The race course itself.

This really has been a long stretch to get ourselves ready for this Summer. I wanted to give a big special thanks to Everyone who's been along this process, big or small. A special thanks to Icecreammachine and NinjaB75 for some real creative ideas, a thanks to Brokk as always for his tips and also tricks with the track train. Another thanks to midnite for always being on the lookout for bugs big and small. There are many, many others I could mention, just know we appreciate it all very much.

Is that an Artpass I smell? The gas fumes and fresh tire rubber sure seems to indicate it.
Welcome to the first layer of Oilchange's canvas -
  1. Almost No dev textures!!
  2. Restructured buildings for blue and red
  3. diner
  4. 3d skybox (possibly to be fully demolished and redone. we're all still learning here)
  5. better optimization
Due to the intense shift from beta one to beta two, here are some gifs showing the progression:
(some created while still in development)
